Perth GMG Sapphic Social Picnic - 4 October

FAQs

• Can I bring my dog to the picnic?

  Pet dogs aren’t able to attend our picnics. While we understand how comforting animals can be, we’ve found that dogs can create distraction and disrupt the calm, connection focused nature of the space. For this reason, only registered therapy and guide dogs are permitted to attend due to their training.

  These picnics are designed to feel low pressure and supportive, especially for those who experience social anxiety, with no expectation to participate beyond what feels comfortable.

• I’m under 18 or have a child or children under 18. Can they attend?

  No. Our picnics are strictly for adults aged 18 and over. The conversations and topics that may arise are intended for an adult space, and we also ask for full presence and attention to support meaningful connection. For similar reasons to our no pets policy, children aren’t able to attend, as their needs can understandably shift focus and change the dynamic of the group.

• I can’t attend the event. What do I need to do?

  Nothing at all. We appreciate you RSVPing, as it helps our Ambassadors get a general sense of expected numbers. As this is a free event, we always factor in that some people may not be able to attend on the day, so no shows are completely okay. While you’re welcome to let us know, it isn’t necessary.

• What’s the picnic agenda?

  All of our picnics follow the same gentle structure: gathering, brief introductions, conversation starters, sharing food, optional games, and time to relax. Because the space is lightly facilitated, we encourage arriving on time or within the first 10 minutes to help maintain flow and respect the group. If you’re running late, please let your Ambassador know via the Messenger chat, or by direct message if you already have their permission.

• How do I contact the Girl Meet Girl Ambassador?

  The best way to reach out is through the Girl Meet Girl community spaces.
